Konings Groep is a privately held, founder-owned Dutch infrastructure services company headquartered in Ravenstein, Netherlands, founded on 8 January 1990 by Geert Konings. Operating through a group structure of wholly-owned subsidiaries — Konings Kabellas- en Glasvezeltechniek B.V. (telecom and fiber), Konings Verlichtingstechniek B.V. (public lighting), Konings Materieel B.V. (equipment), Infra4Profit B.V., and Konings Drilling B.V. — the company delivers turnkey telecom, civil, and lighting infrastructure services across the Netherlands with approximately 125 employees.

Its core offering spans copper cable splicing, fiber optic installation (fusion splicing, OTDR measurement, cable blowing), data network cabling (Cat5e through Cat7), public lighting installation and maintenance, civil works including trenching and working in contaminated ground, and horizontal directional drilling (HDD) for trenchless underground infrastructure. The company is differentiated by a heavy certification stack — CKB, VCA P, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, Safety Culture Ladder Trede 3, BRL SIKB 7000, CO2 Performance Ladder Trede 3, PSO Trede 2, and Dätwyler Certified Installer — required to bid on Dutch telecom, energy, and municipal tenders.

Konings Groep generates project-based revenue from named enterprise and government customers including KPN, Eurofiber, Glaspoort, Allinq, Van Gelder Telecom, Enexis (Approved Main Contractor since 2025), TenneT, and municipalities such as Amsterdam, Arnhem, Boxtel, Sint-Michielsgestel, and Helmond. Commercial motion is sales-led enterprise field sales with multi-year framework agreements (e.g., 4-year OVL contracts) and competitive tendering; subcontracting to other contractors in the Dutch telecom infrastructure sector is also a stated channel. The company does not publish revenue and has no external institutional investors.
